Today, my girlfriend dumped me by text for another man while I was at work. While I worked the drive-thru, a customer noticed me choking back my tears and said "I'd be cryin' too if I worked your dead-end job." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me while placing her order. I work as a Drive-Thru cashier at McDonalds. FML
Today, I was driving to work and I got a text from my girlfriend. She said she was breaking up with me. I was a little heartbroken, but I had to get on with my day. I got to work and my boss fired me. Turns out, my boss and girlfriend have been having an affair and she told him to fire me. FML
Today, I was dumped via text halfway through my 8-hour bar shift. I had to deal with my co-workers and customers asking me how my vacation with my now-ex was for the next 4 hours. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me. He decided he would be a gentleman and do this to me at work, over text, during a rush of unsympathetic customers, the day before our anniversary. FML
Today, my girlfriend came to my workplace to tell me she was breaking up with me. My boss, who was passing by, fired me for "chatting with friends" during work hours. FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me via text message. The sad thing is that I left my fiancée of 5 years to be with a girl I worked with at Walmart. My ex-fiancée is now a doctor. I still work at Walmart. FML
Today, my boyfriend dropped by my work to break up with me. I had to go the rest of my shift with a smile, fighting back tears. I work as the Cinderella at Disney Land. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me by sending me a text. She was sitting right beside me on a 10 hour car trip, and there was still 6 more hours to go. FML
Today, my fiancée broke up with me over text message while I was away for work. She later posted photos of her and her new boyfriend on Facebook, while still wearing my engagement ring. FML
Today, my girlfriend had someone else dump me via text message. I knew it wasn't her because for once I wasn't being viciously insulted, and it wasn't written as if an illiterate baboon had taken a shit all over her keypad. I can't even feel happy about being rid of her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A girl who would dump you over text is so not worth it! And that guys an asshole, you do you

Awe, my apologies, OP.. That lady and your ex will both get what's coming to them. Karma, as they say, is a bitch.

You're better off without her. She sounds like a cowardly piece of SHIT. As for the customer's comment...****'em! At least you are working and not collecting a welfare cheque. Paid from their tax dollars. People should keep that in mind, before they open their uneducated mouths. Chin up OP. It will get better.

What a complete asshole... And what's more is I'm guessing they got away scott-free for saying that. Customer service goes too far. I work a drive-thru 40+ hours a week and some of the people I've encountered deserve to be yelled at. Like that person. **** them. And your ex girlfriend too.

I think they should be banned from the place

Aww, I'm so sorry. You deserve better than that.

Don't be sad, OP. You can find someone better. And that customer can go suck a lead pipe; people who work in food service have a lot to put up with, and a large part of the economy would fail without that industry.

You're girlfriend is an ass for not being able to do it in person, and that other person is probably unemployed getting money from their parents. Neither are worth your time.

So many people with so little empathy towards your fellow human! I'm starting to get real tired of it! Anyway, hang in there OP!

Maybe they are earning a degree and working there while they do it.

If everyone did that there would be no one to make your food or serve it to you.

As someone who is lucky enough to not have to work through school so far, trust me it's not that. I can see how hard customer service jobs are without having one and the fact when you need money, any job is better than none. And how are you supposed to even go to school if your job is shit and any money goes to keeping you alive? Get over yourself and try to see how others lives are. It's not as simple as get a degree(doesn't promise you a job) or get w better job.

Lol, time to stop assuming shit you have NO idea about you brainless prick.

'Dead end job' yet they wouldn't be able to get their food if you didn't work there, would they? Sounds like you're a much better person than both the customer and your ex, OP. Keep your head up!

OP when my situation shows its bad side, it motivates me to expel it. You can do the same.
